Investigators say Montana and Philly rap phenom Meek Mill were on the bus when the murder occured. Montana told investigators he didn't even know what was happening outside until his entourage told him.

"It's just ignorant. You fire into a crowd and you're gonna hit somebody. In this case, unfortunately, someone was killed. Don't know if they had anything to do with anything, if they were a fan or what," said Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey.

French Montana was questioned through the night and for the better part of the morning. Some of his entourage and fans are still being questioned. Investigators say two people returned fire after the intial shots rang out. Three people were taken into custody for carrying guns.

So far, there are no suspects in the deadly shooting.

"...When you find people like that, they should just never see the light of day again. I mean that kind of behavior's just unacceptable. For me, there's just no rehabilitation for anything like that," Ramsey said.

Police say that the rapper and his entourage are cooperating with investigators.

Montana is a Moroccan-born rapper currently signed with Bad Boy Records, according to his bio. His debut album featuring Nicki Minaj is scheduled to drop on May 21. He, along with his group, the Coke Boys, are supposed to perform in Boston tonight.
